US Embassy Travel Update

July 28, 2007


The US Embassy has instructed official Americans and their families to continue to maintain a low profile in Sana’a, avoiding stores, hotels and restaurants where large groups of Westerners have gathered or that do not have vehicle inspection programs and secure parking and dining areas. Official travel outside Sana’a will be limited to mission essential activities. The US Embassy will continue to monitor the security situation in Yemen and ensure American citizens are informed of any developments.

The U.S. Embassy is located at Dhahr Himyar Zone, Sheraton Hotel District, P.O. Box 22347. The telephone number of the Consular Section is (967)(1) 755-2000, extension 2153 or 2266. The fax number is (967)(1) 303-175. The after hours emergency number is (967)(1)755-2000 (press zero for extension). In case of an emergency, if these regular numbers do not work, please call 967-733213509.

Current information on travel and security in Yemen may be obtained from the Department of State by calling 1-888-407-4747 within the United States and Canada, or, from outside the United States and Canada, 1-202-501-4444. U.S. citizens should consult the Travel Warning for Yemen, the Consular Information Sheet for Yemen, the Middle East and North Africa Public Announcement, and the Worldwide Caution Public Announcement on the Department's Internet site at http://travel.state.gov .
